Ian,
Thanks for the feedback. I will try the friction fit first since I =
really
prefer not to modify something unnecessarily.
All the best
Pete

Pete,

That seepage might be a good thing. I doubt that the bike would be =
happy
 with that little fuel and start sputtering to let you know it was =
time to
 switch to the reserve.
=20
In my Convert petcocks and the similar style petcocks I added to the =
69
 Ambo
the tubes merely stuck in. It is a pretty tight fit and I doubt that =
much
 fuel could seep.
=20
I am so looking forward to the rally. I have the Wixoms attached to =
the
 bike, tent checked and route plans already made. Really too bad that =
you
 won't be there since there will be a few of the Loopframers there. =
We'll
 hook up at some point though.

I dont think that will work, the tube's function is to raise the =
pickup
 level above the bottom of the petcock so an early warning of low gas =
will
 result. If you dont seal the bottom of the tube to the petcock, =
gas
 can seep in under the tube bottom making it useless and then the =
early
 warning will be a late warning like I got a few weeks ago.
=20
Hope that makes sense. I always need a paper to draw a picture when =
I
 explain something. Using words only can misconscrew the message

You all set for the rally? Sorry I cant make it this year.
